Sooo i wake up today Monday 7/14/14 and first thing that pops into my head is... of course " i wonder if today will be the day mail call brings my purple packages.'' along with do i feel like making dragon,diamond, or inception coils in my free time today( these are my common day dreams, i may have a problem.)

Anyway everyone in my office Vaps. We have freed the bonds of analogs and know ride the vapor trail of freedom, but of course some ppl here that neither vap or smoke are questionable about ecigerettes. They never really come out and say it but there are little hints dropped. Case in point. i walk into my office and everyone is kinda grumbling, not the i hate you grumble but the i cant believe you the person that walked in before you left this BS. so they just point to my desk as they calmly go outside to Vap, i walk to my desk and here it is another 'hint'

Side not: IDK if he thinks we are down here rubbing pure liquid nicotine into our skin like baby oil or we just mildly ......ed.i have no idea but the top three Safty keys on the right hand in bold left me with " you have to be kidding me and Poison Control will let anyone right a article.

1.Keep out of reach of children- Umm why would i keep anything harmful around my kids if they are not old enough to understand ( do not drink this)

2.Wear Rubber Gloves when handling liquid nicotine-- Not a bad idea if your handling a gallon of 100 pure nicotine but i dought 3 drops hitting your hand will send you into a chase the unicorn frenzy.

3.Do not store liquid nicotine where you store your eyesdrops- excuse my language but ARE YOU .......** KIDDING ME?
( At this point any rasonal thought in this entire article was now invalid. and my brain dieded a little inside.



OK RANT OVER. but as you can see, this had me "feeling some type of way" lol:facepalm:

Now off to stare at the mail clerks until mail truck comes:vapor:

P.S. Please excuse any spelling and grammer errors

IMHO, you should find articles that refute this one, and place them on the desks of those non-smokers. Then, find an articles that shows the absolute dangers of smoking analogs versus the benefits of vaping. You'll waste a lot of time (and probably create a few hard feelings) trying to educate whoever it was who placed the article on your desk.

Then, find an article that shows that this whole nonsense of vaporhate is really about dollars and cents.

Keep vaping, and don't let the ignorant masses dissuade you...:thumb:
 
It is amazing that as kids we lived at all ! Cars without seat belts , lead based paint , cleaners under the sink we didn't need labels on bags
(NOT A TOY ) ,do not eat , do not place over head , open box before eating pizza .
It just goes to show you how dumb the government thinks you are .

lol open box before eating pizza .... best quote ever lol

Didn't you hear? Too much water is bad for you.

When I was a kid, I used to roll mercury around in my hand. Never got mercury poisoning.

When I was a kid, I used to go to the gun range, collect the spent lead and melt it down on the stove in an old cast iron skillet to make my own fishing lures. Never got lead poisoning.

When I was a kid, I used to clean my hands with gasoline or solvent after working on my cars. Never got blood poisoning.

When I was a kid and playing football, I used to eat six eggs for breakfast. I've never had high cholesterol.

Now that I am an adult, I am free to make my own choices.

Would I drink my e-liquid? No

Would I immerse my hands in 100% pure nicotine liquid? No

Would I keep my juice next to my eye drops? No

Do I give a flying fart of a rolling donut about these kind of articles? OH HELL NO!

Have a nice day and vape away! :vapor:

The real funny thing is smoking is quietly bad, which means the money has touched the right palms. The fact that vaping is the new Satan means the money hasn't touched the right palms...

My students tell me how bad vaping is and the nurses and or doctors taking my classes pipe up and do the arguing for me. All the medical professionals think it's the best thing since sliced bread as I have helped all of them spread the news to their smoking patients and all of those are doing really well when NOTHING has helped before. They list studies and the pros and cons and end with, "I would rather be exposed to vape than cigarets any day! The e-cigs are a much alternative than any approved quitting substance and far better than cigarets!!!" And then the person parroting the poor reporting in the news go, "Oh...erm...okay...?" :unsure:

:evil:

I learned with other things a long time ago to not trust the media, government etc., when it comes to what is safe or harmful to put in my body. They've got it all backwards and their approach to this subject is unreasonable to begin with, on the entire front. If they're attacking vaping, then I'm doing something right by vaping. It's proof.

Excellent factor to determine we are doing right!!! :lol:

I went in search of this story on the web. Instead I found another story by the same person who said one man confused his liquid with eye drops and another mistook a cartridge for a pill and swallowed it. Uh say what?? The article also said you can purchase e liquid by the gallon. Clark, where's my gallon of GCD??

Darwin awards anyone??? :laugh: And that person must not know the metric system as all e-juice that I have seen is in metric measurements. Including nicotine. It's not 100% nicotine it's 100mg of nicotine which is 10% nicotine by volume mixed with either PG or VG or a blend of both.

And screw a gallon, where is my tanker truck??? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Well the title of the article is somewhat true, nicotine CAN be poisonous at high volume. It should say 'can be poisonous' not 'is poisonous'. I cant read the whole article but I assume the author believes her target audience is a bunch of idiots. Start paying attention to articles in mags and newspapers, most are written with the assumption we're all single cells. Writers cant take all the blame, editors are the ones who approve/disapprove and have the authority to change titles and content of articles etc., and they have a clear mandate from their bosses, the owners. Research the owners of all the major newspapers in our country. Theres not many of them and in recent years theyve started buying up small town newspapers. Order through chaos, my friends. Part of living in a free country is freedom of speech.....just watch what you say.

:

It will be interesting to see, now that some BT companies are getting involved in the e-cig business, will they stop pushing the horror stories? Will they start the "money touching the right palms" in the other direction?

BT won't stop pushing the horror stories until they're the top dog in the e-cig industry.

Be wary of bt. The first thing they'll do is try to get regulations stating that all juice producers have multi-million dollar test facilities (which the bt companies conveniently already have), effectively creating a massive barrier to entry for all the smaller companies.

And CASAA isnt going to get anywhere without more money to grease the right people, if thats even possible. Most politicians on both sides of the aisle are already in the pocket of big tobacco. All in the game, right? :facepalm:
